Summary

Existing law requires publishers, as defined, and manufacturers of printed instructional material, including digital open source textbooks if and when the California Open Source Library is established, for use at public postsecondary educational institutions, to provide the material, upon request, in an electronic format that is compatible with commonly used braille translation and speech synthesis software, when those materials are to be used by a student whose disability prevents him or her from using standard instructional materials and other requirements are met. Existing law also requires publishers and manufacturers to provide computer files or other electronic versions of nonprinted instructional materials, as defined, to include materials that require the availability of electronic equipment in order to be utilized, when technology is available to convert those nonprinted materials to a format that is compatible with braille translation or speech synthesis software. Existing law also requires the governing boards of the California Community Colleges, the California State University, and the University of California to adopt guidelines consistent with this provision for its implementation and administration. The bill would make nonsubstantive changes in this provision.
